It's just sad to know "drug booty" is actually mugs and post-its and pens with "Lopressor" printed on them.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Our wings are not tired
I never thought much about it as a kid but my dad is a doctor and a lot of my friends were children on doctors. They always had pens and pads and bags and things from the drug companies. My dad never accepted any of that stuff and didn't even use it in his office. When I finally realized how the industry worked I was pretty proud of his quiet personal stand about it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I only use Prozac pens. They are my favorite. I hope I never run out.

The thing about ita's case that is so awful is that there is a cocktail of drugs that help. But the damn ER won't give it to her - at least not without trying a bunch of stuff that does not work first.
I wonder if we could do a Buffista campaign for ita. Not a pressure campaign but an educational one. Put togther a packet with the peer reviewed article, and copies of appropriate parts of her medical record: The migraine doctor's prescription, the records of her other visits to ER where they tried other stuff and ultimately had to escalated to the cocktail. And some articles on cases like itas where people who need pain control are denied or delayed by hospital policy. Send a copy to every doctor who works for the ER who can veto treatment for ita, and send copies to key administrators as well. See if we can educate this one ER to the point where they will give her the right treatment when she comes in. Don't know how ita feels about this... The impulse to interfere comes from love, but I hope it does not feel like something else on the receiving end.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Leave your laptop logged in there, Lee?

Ah, I thought I sensed an evil Suzi-shaped disturbance in the force.
